The dynamic version of the Drafttracker is now available. This version gives you the opportunity to set the number of teams and rounds specific to your league. You can also choose which standard statistics to display or hide on the Team Stats page.

Dynamic Drafttracker also features color-coded Roto Stats so that you can quickly identify which categories your team is doing well in, and which ones you need to boost in real time.

The Draft Board allows you to select players from a drop-down list or enter them manually with auto-completion.

Plus, you still get all of the same projections and MDP cheat sheets as in the standard version.

Please keep in mind that this is the BETA version so use them at your own risk. Feedback on known issues and bugs on our discussion forum would be greatly appreciated. Part of what makes this product is the fantasy baseball community.

Wow that was quick! I didn't expect this to be ready until tomorrow at the earliest. Thanks Rob. I'll be testing this version in a mock draft this week.

Thanks. Hopefully there won't be too many bugs. Looks like we have the names under control. Shouldn't be issues like last year with Thomas Hanson vs. Tommy Hanson.

I haven't yet checked all the names in the stats tabs, but some of the notable name differences that I've come across in doing my MDP list are Phil/Philip Hughes, C.C./CC Sabathia, Chris (B.) Young, Russell/Russ Branyan, Alex/Alexis Rios, and Matt/Mat Latos. CBS likes to use middle initials a lot which also makes matters more difficult.

Yeah, I removed the middle initials where I could. The only exception was for the 2 Chris Young's since they are both active players that could potentially be drafted.

I tend to leave the periods in for names like C.C. and A.J. etc.

But any updates I made I did for the entire worksheet so that it was consistent throughout.

It doesn't seem to work the same as last year. I unhid the players above the Draft Sheet and added him, and he's not populating in the drop down. I'll wait for confirmation on the solution, but in the mean time I created a "Missing Players List" on the forum, if I run into more.

Sorry for another post, but I figured it out, I added him to the hidden "Players" sheet and he's now showing up. Unsure if I need him there and on the hidden Draft Sheet area, but I added him to both and things seem fine.

Yes, the hidden Players list is what drives the hidden names on the Draft Board. You may have noticed on the Players sheet that there were several lines with random letters, this is to keep the number of lines the same so as not to have to rewrite the VB macro code that builds the draft board.

So, yes, you can add a missing name there and then rebuild the Draft Board - however, rebuilding the draft board will erase any entries previously entered.

A small update to my post - if you are mid-draft and need to add a player, then you should do as Dan did and add him to the Players list AND the hidden lists at the top of the Draft Board sheet - this will not require you to rebuild the draft board. My earlier post was if you find a missing player before you start drafting.

Rob touched on a key point in regards to missing players. Rob, would you please move your post over to the forum?

In fact, let's move all discussions regarding issues and bugs over to the forum!
